I am a small business owner that has rediscovered a love of programming. 20 years ago I was a moderately skilled programmer, after a 20 year break I am, once again, a newbie.

My programming background was in the 80's in BASIC, 6502/8088 Assy and a spattering of PASCAL, FORTRAN etc.. I had no exposure whatsoever to OOP until I decided to learn C# on my own about a year ago. I do have a background in electronics including digital design and theory, again from the 80s.

My goal is to build a series of small aps to enable employees to work more efficiently and to make certain tasks easier for them. Unfortunately I am finding doing so, while enjoyable, a bit frustrating in a vacuum and so I turn to Stack Overflow as my mentor :-)

What is the best way to melt chocolate?The 2nd dirty pot had water and perhaps a spot of chocolate on in it, the 1st with chocolate cleans so easily since chocolate melts at below 120 degrees so I would not be concerned with this. Upvoted because double boiler every day!!!

How do you cook grass-fed beef so it is not tough?I raise my own Grass fed beef (2 pairs so far) and it should not be tough. I would suspect that it was not aged properly or was an older animal. The only issue I have found so far is that connective tissues, but not the fat, tend to be a bit stronger (Gamey?) than store bought beef.
